  CREAM. 
  

  

  In 
  tho 
  Agricultural 
  Law 
  tliere 
  is 
  no 
  pro\nsion 
  against 
  adulter- 
  

   ating 
  cream, 
  except 
  the 
  provision 
  against 
  using 
  preservatives 
  in 
  

   dairy 
  products. 
  In 
  my 
  judgment 
  some 
  action 
  should 
  be 
  taken 
  by 
  

   the 
  Legislature 
  relative 
  to 
  this 
  commodity 
  to 
  the 
  end 
  that 
  cream 
  

   when 
  sold 
  upon 
  the 
  market 
  shall 
  be 
  pure. 
  

  

  CHEESE. 
  

  

  During 
  the 
  year 
  we 
  have 
  had 
  four 
  cheese 
  instructors 
  busy 
  a 
  

   large 
  share 
  of 
  the 
  time 
  in 
  giving 
  instruction 
  where 
  needed 
  as 
  to 
  

   the 
  best 
  method 
  of 
  making 
  a 
  uniform, 
  first-grade 
  cheese. 
  I 
  am 
  

   constrained 
  to 
  state 
  now, 
  as 
  a 
  matter 
  of 
  fact, 
  what 
  in 
  my 
  last 
  an- 
  

   nual 
  report 
  I 
  stated 
  as 
  a 
  fear 
  only, 
  viz. 
  : 
  That 
  the 
  efforts 
  we 
  are 
  

   putting 
  forth 
  along 
  this 
  line 
  are 
  being 
  vitiated 
  by 
  dealers 
  in 
  out- 
  

   side 
  States 
  who 
  are 
  ruining 
  the 
  reputation 
  of 
  IsTew 
  York 
  State 
  

   full-cream 
  cheese 
  by 
  using 
  fac-sitnilcs 
  of 
  the 
  brand 
  issued 
  by 
  

   this 
  Department 
  upon 
  cheese 
  of 
  an 
  inferior 
  quality 
  made 
  else- 
  

   where 
  than 
  in 
  the 
  State 
  of 
  ISTew 
  York. 
  I 
  am 
  satisfied 
  that 
  some- 
  

   thing 
  must 
  be 
  done 
  by 
  the 
  ISTational 
  Government 
  to 
  stop 
  this. 
  A 
  

   law 
  should, 
  in 
  my 
  judgment, 
  be 
  enacted 
  by 
  the 
  government 
  to 
  the 
  

   effect 
  that 
  no 
  dairy 
  or 
  food 
  products 
  should 
  be 
  falsely 
  branded 
  as 
  

   to 
  the 
  State 
  in 
  which 
  they 
  are 
  made, 
  or 
  a 
  law 
  providing 
  that 
  each 
  

   State 
  may 
  register 
  a 
  State 
  trade-mark, 
  and 
  that 
  it 
  shall 
  not 
  be 
  

   used 
  upon 
  any 
  goods 
  made 
  elsewhere 
  than 
  in 
  the 
  State 
  so 
  register- 
  

   ing 
  it. 
  One 
  of 
  these 
  laws 
  should 
  be 
  enacted 
  and 
  rigidly 
  enforced 
  

   in 
  the 
  interest 
  of 
  integrity 
  and 
  honest 
  production. 
  If 
  it 
  is 
  not 
  

   done 
  all 
  the 
  work 
  that 
  has 
  been 
  done 
  in 
  the 
  State 
  of 
  New 
  York 
  

   and 
  all 
  the 
  money 
  expended 
  along 
  the 
  line 
  of 
  producing 
  a 
  uni- 
  

   form, 
  first-grade 
  of 
  cheese 
  has 
  been 
  virtually 
  thrown 
  away, 
  be- 
  

   cause 
  the 
  counterfeit 
  brand, 
  above 
  referred 
  to, 
  is 
  leaving 
  an 
  

   impression 
  among 
  the 
  buyers 
  outside 
  of 
  this 
  State 
  that 
  our 
  full- 
  

   cream 
  cheese 
  is 
  an 
  inferior 
  article.
